Core loss = Eddy current loss (Pc) At maximum efficiency
+ Hysteresis loss (Pg) Core loss = Copper loss
 2
P c = kef + khf i.e., P c = Pcu
At 50 Hz, P c = 46 watt So, total loss = Pc + Pcu = 1000 watt
 46 = kc(50)2 + kh.50 …(1)
or P cu = 500 watt
At 70 Hz, P c = 80 watt
at 80% of the full load then Pcu at full load
